This year a national survey showed that 70% of American teenage boys have played that game and that they are more likely to have been in a fight than those who have not played.
Well duh. If 70% of teenage boys have played it, of course that percent is more likely to be in a fight than the other 30%.
for a long time, being a windows user, I of course used the screensaver version to do the math. However, it's come to my attention that using the command line makes for better efficiency, less CPU devoted to nice graphs, more CPU for crunching numbers. I read somewhere it was between 5-10% faster. Anyway, just a heads up for you seti folk running windows who want to squeeze a few more results out in a day:)
to pay some sort of monthly fee to my bank for biometric identification at ATMs, especially in these days of fake atms, false fronts, and cameras seeing your PIN.
The wife and I were hooked on this game for a while, having to 'fight' for pc time to play. There is not too much thinking involved as the puzzle would show you which pieces to click if you wait long enough...

I'm a big fan of Desert Combat mod for Battlefield 1942, seems as though the designers/coders have formed their own company headed by founder Frank Delise. This seems like a great way for mods to break into the gaming scene, release an amazing mod for free, then start a company, then PROFIT! (sorry..). I'm really looking forward to see what these guys are comming up with next.
We're obviously in a struggle right now trying to figure out the best techniques to ensure that they are compensated appropriately.'"
As a Canadian, I already pay a copyright levy on cdrs, am I supposed to pay more to my isp now? Judging by the line above..I'd have to say it isnt completely out of the question.
When I go for groceries, and the wife has asked me to pick up some sort of vegetables/fruits, this little sticker would be a blessing. Now say if my mother/grandmother were to go, i'm sure she would disregard the sticker, and squeeze the fruit regardless, because that's what they've been doing for years and years of cooking. For our 'packaged food is better food' generation, this may work, but for the older 'cook from scratch' generation, I just cant see it being a big hit.
It remains illegal for any South Koreans to email their northern neighbours without government permission.
I wonder how strict they are about this? How could you possibly enforce a rule like this, considering the amount of wired households in S.K.
What if someone in N.K sends an email to an email on your mail server which doesn't exist, and your server happily sends out something along the lines of 'this address does not exist'. Are you liable then?
TCT is a collection of programs by Dan Farmer and Wietse Venema for a post-mortem analysis of a UNIX system after break-in. The software was presented first in a Computer Forensics Analysis class in August 1999 Examples of using TCT can also be found on-line in a series of columns in the Doctor Dobb's Journal. Notable TCT components are the grave-robber tool that captures information, the ils and mactime tools that display access patterns of files dead or alive, the unrm and lazarus tools that recover deleted files, and the findkey tool that recovers cryptographic keys from a running process or from files.
Would it's ability to be more virulent possibly come from it's relative ease of travel with no gravity? Like somehow gravity 'slows' the virus down when it's on the planet or something...ok...this is where i trail off...
The 'blood' will slowly appear to spill out on the streets and drip onto the pavements.
What happense if if someone gets this on their pantlegs or shoes? But really....I think one of the advertisers was watching simpsons and saw the episode with the itchy scratchy: the movie billboard which poured blood onto the newlyweds below.
The Solar Impulse aircraft will have an extremely long wingspan, advanced aerodynamics,
and a revolutionary structure in order to capture and store sufficient solar energy during the day
and to be able to maintain itself in flight during the night.

Brilliant study.
heh, i know how the monday brain works, but damn, thats quite the increase. You'd think seti would really want to push the command line version more.

Seems like this would affect everyone then, would we see a (significant) price increase in the mentioned products?
How many of us use a fat partition on their home computers? Since the drives cant be larger than 7.8GB, how many people does this really affect?

At least for a couple more years anyway....

No Trade Federation!? They've only got the meanest droid army around!
I'd love to play as one of the droidekas
Nice, thanks.
With the advent of 'WinFS', and now NTFS on linux..how long until we see a 'NixFS'
From what i've read about WinFS, a *nix 'version' would be quite nice.

I installed the game...and...well...i dont seem to have _any_ of my mp3s on my computer anymore, what happened? :)
This may help..

I would suggest you check out Coffeecup Html Editor.
Lots of features, yet easy for beginners, oh and it has a "Live Chat feature", which may be much for an 11 year old, but maybe mommy can help?

Since china wants to produce their own DVDs, and is selling CPUs, what's to say they wont make their own bios?
I was just about to head out for some lunch...maybe i will grab that cheeseburger i was thinking of...
Wonder how many people will use this finding as a reason not to work out / eat right.
